Chapter 15: Inside
Gao Jianguo and the old man Hei, even if they were calm, were also dumbfounded, and retreated again and again to dodge.
Ximen Jing sighed, wrapped the thing in the furry bear skin, stuffed it back into the filling, and tried to restore its original appearance, and then said: "You have all seen it, this is the culprit of your daughter's illness, I am afraid that you will not be able to accept it, so I am ready to take it away quietly!"
Thinking that this thing had been under his bed for several months, and he often held it, Gao Liang's tears came down, and she cried: "You take it away quickly, it's all for you anyway!"
Gao Jianguo settled down and said, "Little master, this, what's going on?"
Ximen Jing shook his head slightly and said, "You really have to listen, if something goes wrong, I'm not responsible!"
Zhang Xiuli came over with the courage and said, "Young man, please take it away, don't say it, this, this is too scary!"
Gao Jianguo asked tentatively: "Little master, let's call the police!"
Ximen Jing said: "I don't object to calling the police, but how to explain, you have thought about it, or you can deal with it yourself, anyway, the thing belongs to you!" said and handed the woolly bear to Gao Jianguo.
Gao Jianguo hurriedly took a few steps back, waved his hand and said, "Don't, don't let you deal with it! You are professional!"
Ximen Jing did not take the business car when he came, but made an appointment for a special car to wait at the gate of the community. Slowly walking outside the community, Gao Jianguo chased after him, forced him into a thick envelope, and said a few kind words.
As soon as Ximen Jing pinched it, he knew that it was cash, he didn't want it, but after thinking about it, he could be regarded as having paid for his labor, and the income from his labor was at ease, and he was hypocritical, so he put it in his pocket.
The special car did not drive home, Ximen Jing asked the driver to send him to the shore of the wild lake, he stepped on the ice alone on the island in the middle of the lake, found a secluded place, took out a straight knife from his arms as a shovel, and dug a deep pit in the frozen hard soil.
The furry bear was put into the deep pit, and when Ximen Jing filled the pit, the outer skin spread out again, revealing a dried corpse wrapped inside.
It was the corpse of a young boy, roasted like jerky, with dark skin and wrinkles. The little boy's big eyes were hollow, his face was distorted, and his expression was very painful, as if he was enduring the torment of the fire.
Ximen Jing sighed, rewrapped the body, filled it with dirt, and covered it with some weeds. The weather forecast says that there will be snow in the next few days, just in time for the heavy snow to hide the traces here.
According to the records of the Lingshi, there is a branch of witches in Nanyang, who likes to refine the corpses of children and detain the souls of the dead for their own use, and is called the ghost boy.
It is said that this kind of evil art is still very popular in Southeast Asia, and it is mostly refined with the corpses of children who died young. Some people like to ask ghost boys to worship, saying that they can fulfill some wishes.
In Gao Liang's bedroom, Ximen Jing found that the bear exuded a sense of resentment, so he opened his eyes and saw the clues. At that time, Ximen Jing persuaded Gao Liang not to continue to pretend to be crazy for this reason, because when people pretend to be crazy, their minds are unstable and they are easily taken advantage of by evil spirits. The strange thing is, why did Gao Liang's classmate give her a ghost boy, and it was not clear what was the secret in it? Ximen Jing decided to meet that Wang Xiaogang for a while.
I have consumed a lot of spiritual power today, and I happen to absorb some supplements here by the way. So Ximen Jing came to the small pavilion, meditated and absorbed the aura, and did not return home until the evening.
At this time, the two immortals who were watching came to a courtyard in the old urban area of Cloud City. Most of the courtyards in these old urban areas are old and have deep courtyards, and one or two of them can be seen from the mottled moss marks on the brick walls.
The yard was full of potted flowers, and a thin white-haired old man in a Tang costume was carrying a watering can to water the potted plants.
With a humble expression on her face, the fat woman said softly: "Master, the incident you explained is a bit eyebrow-raising, we found a young man who can drive away ghosts, but my husband and wife are clumsy and don't see the depth of his Taoism. ”
"Move that pot of jasmine here, yes, this side is facing the sun!" The old man didn't answer the topic, still slowly pouring water, and instructed the two to do chores.
The flowers in the yard were watered for a long time, and the old man said: "Others, they all think that everything is dormant in winter, and flowers should also rest, so there is no need to water, I just do the opposite, give enough water, keep the temperature, and bask in the sun often, you see, how is this flower raised?"
Not to mention, several potted flowers that should wither in winter are clear and green, and there is a large pot of plum blossoms in the corner, and the dark fragrance lingers in spring. The husband and wife praised again and again.
The old man said: "I think back then, the Great Zhou Zetian Emperor, an edict 'Ming Dynasty tour the garden, quickly report the spring knowledge, the flowers are sent overnight, don't wait for the wind to urge' so that the flowers bloom overnight in the cold winter, what a spectacular, domineering, but unfortunately I don't have that way for the teacher, come and sit in our house, talk about your affairs!"
In the hall, a set of mahogany inlaid luodian inlaid stone heart of the Eight Immortals table against the mountain, hanging a few unknown calligraphy and paintings on the wall, it looks rich and noble, and with a bit of elegance. The old man sat on the official hat chair and said, "Drink the water yourself, don't treat yourself as an outsider!"
The husband and wife didn't dare to sit down, and hurriedly told the old man the black man about seeing a doctor and following Ximen Jing.
The old man had a pair of lion heads in his hand, listened carefully, and when they had finished speaking, he said, "Go again, and stick this on his door." As he spoke, he took out a piece of yellow sheet paper from his arms, folded it in a diamond shape, and handed it to the fat woman.
"Just put it on?" asked the fat woman.
The old man didn't answer, but nodded, as if in deep thought.
The husband and wife had no objections, and hurriedly picked them up and said goodbye and left.
Seeing their backs disappear, the old man sat there, and the walnut plate in his hand rang loudly, and said to himself for a while: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, now there are people from the outer door who can drive the soul, isn't it that the immortal art of our Earth Immortal Sect has leaked out?"
"But it just so happens that the old man is looking for this kind of person this time!" At this time it was already dark, the old man looked at the hour, got up and went into the inner bedroom, pulled out a wooden box from under the bed, and found a three-inch black box inside.
When I opened the lid of the box, there was a stone that exuded a dark luster like ink, and this was a piece of black jade.
Any fine stone can be called jade, but jade is good and bad. The ancients believed that jade has benevolence, wisdom, etiquette, etiquette, faith, and five virtues, and is divided into five elements according to color: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
According to the records of the spiritual priests, black jade is water, cool in nature, and can send souls.
The old man rubbed this piece of black jade, put it in front of a bronze incense burner, recited words in his mouth, and pointed heavily on the black jade with the thumb and index finger of both hands. I only heard a soft stabbing sound, and the black jade shattered into two, and something like black smoke floated up.
"Go, go, it's time for you to come out!" said the old man, and the black smoke drifted out of the window like a small whirlwind, straight into the distant sky, and disappeared into the night.
